Just wanted to leave a little update: after talking to a tester of the Eclair Raglan (thank you!) she let me know that the pattern uses about a worsted weight.

One of my dream knits for this fall is a Kerr Sweater by Rebecca Clow. I actually cast it on just the other day. I'm excited! It'll be my first sweater and my first colorwork project. I've also been eyeing the Salty Days Sweater by Veronika Lindberg.

I haven't knitted a cardigan yet but at the absolute top of my dream-knit-cardigan list is the Jacket No. 1 by MYFT. I have the sweater no. 18, which has the same texture and it is my alltime favorite sweater, so I feel like I would wear the hell out of that cardigan. And I think it would look great with your Explorer Knits and Fibers yarn! Thanks for another great video, I am always happy when I see a new one pop up in my timeline :)

I LOVE all of the colors you showed for these patterns! I'm not super into neutrals, but the more neutral yarns you showed have lots of interest in them. Also, I hope you end up making the Tessellated Pullover with those yarns! I just finished my vest and I love it so much.

I have EKF yarn to make a Field Day cardigan, hopefully for Rhinebeck. I’m all about v neck cardigans too. Hope to get yarn for Elah, Vodka Straight Up and Wjnter’s beach when I’m at Rhinebeck. I also like Seasons.

For your EKF fiadh yarn…have you thought about doing a Lanark by Creabea? It’s a half fisherman’s rib 1/4 zip pullover. Not quite a cardigan…but you mentioned that you like half fisherman rib so I thought i would suggest it!!

I can’t speak for the gauge bc I ignored it and used fingering and adjusted lol but I just finished a longer sleeve full length bastardized version of Falesia by Emilie Luis and I am in love with the outcome and ease of styling it. I was 100% won over by the cute increase lace for the raglan
